You are a contestant in a game show, and the game show host tells you there is a prize behind one of the three doors you face. You have to guess which door to open.
But when you make your guess, instead of opening the door you picked, the game show host opens a different door...one that he knows has nothing behind it. So now you're down to two doors. And the game show host says, "I'll let you change your choice, if you want to."
And the question is, do you change your guess? Or keep your original choice?

Keep my choice. The probability chance doesn't change. You might still be right.

Change your answer.
It's a common misconception that the probability doesn't change but it does really.
In short, stick with the same door and you win 1/3 of the time.
Change and you win 2/3 of the time.

I'd stick with my choice, you changing your choice would probably make you lose.

I think I'd go with the original door.

Keep the door you've chosen
Theres a science behind going with your gut and I don't mean your gut feeling will give you the right lottery numbers
However going with your gut feeling i.e. the feeling that pushed you to pick that door is a positive thing
If you changed door when offered then the prize was behind the original door you picked you'd all of a sudden be filled with anger and have almost a hate towards yourself for not believing in yourself
Vs
If you kept the door you picked but the prize wasn't there you wouldn't feel so much anger because you done what you believed was the best choice
